Baldwin picked it up. Then without checking the loads cocked the weapon, pointed at someone, and then pulled the f’ing trigger. EOS. You operate it, you own it. He should enjoy some shower and soap time with bubba in jail.
...pointed it at someone...

One of the first things I learned in firearm safety is NEVER point anything unless you intend to shoot it.
Whoever put a real bullet in that gun, which was being used to film a movie, was a murderer. It was more stupid and dangerous than even Alec Baldwin to do that.
It could, possibly, have been Alec Baldwin who loaded that gun with a real bullet so that he could murder Halyna in front of a room full of people and make it look like an accident.
But, that would require Alec Baldwin to be an actor.
Baldwin shot out of anger and not part of the script? He is toast.
